First 5 km very tough, narrow path through a beautiful forest, 2nd part false flat + through the fields. Descending on this road doesn't seem super to me, lots of ruts and the occasional coarse gravel. Uphill fine. Keep on riding!... read more

Eerst 5 km heel stevig, smal pad door een mooi bos, 2de deel vals plat + door de landerijen. Afdalen over deze weg lijkt me niet super, veel sporen en het en der grof grind. Bergop prima. Keep on riding!
